ITEM : You are
offerding on a beautiful antique circa 1930 art deco half pound net weight Schrafft's Blue Banner Chocolates box from Boston, Massachusetts. Inside the interior wrapping is a silk rose, which was likely a gift from the same suitor who gave the candies and kept for the same sentimental impulse. A rare old find with a portrait of a young blushing lovelorn flapper beauty.These
old candy boxes are scarce today because they were of course typically
thrown out when the contents were consumed. A great amount of detail and
work went into the manufacture of these old advertising Americana boxes
as seen in this stellar example.Measures 2 3/4" by 5 3/4" - standing about 1 1/2" tall.Grapefruit Moon Gallery just purchased a large collection of candy
boxes and advertising rarities from an advanced collector that had been
gathering these for the past 35 years at shows and more recently on the
internet. He had never sold any examples from his collection until we
visited for a recent 3 day trip. We ended up purchasing nearly 1000
boxes; some paper, some tin and some gesso'ed wood We will be selling
this whole collection exclusively on our site over the coming 24
months! Some amazing and exceedingly scare examples of Antique
Advertising Americana - we were really impressed with this collection
and hope you too will find these rare examples sensational.
100% guaranteed vintage and original and as always sells !
CONDITION: A great old original antique chocolate candy box and a fine surviving artifact is in very good/fine condition with toning to edges and the most minor corner wear as seen. A beautiful coveted candy box that
displays well.
